This hotel was honestly a 10/10 for us. The location was great, the room was extremely comfortable, and the entire stay felt relaxing. The bed literally felt like sleeping on a cloud. The food was also delicious and overall we really loved our experience here. Staff was also amazing!!! The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because of the breakfast charge. We ordered à la carte and only got one plate each, but ended up being charged much more than expected. I would just recommend that the hotel be more clear when explaining breakfast pricing and charges to guests beforehand. Other than that, we had a great stay and would absolutely come back.
